We know that sustainability is at the root of a more resilient future. Our 2023\-26 Sustainability strategy, called “Roots of resilience”, focuses on protecting natural ecosystems, addressing climate change, and embedding sustainable practices across our operations.

Our Pillars:* Valuing nature: How we impact nature affects how nature impacts us. Resilient ecosystems \- the foundation of a sustainable planet and society – are essential to our future. We’re committed to protecting and restoring nature – from mangrove forests to the bees in our backyard – by increasing biodiversity awareness and inspiring clients and colleagues to put nature at the heart of their plans.

Unpredictable weather, increasing temperatures, and rising sea levels cause both social inequalities and environmental disruption. We're building a net zero strategy, developing insurance products and services, and mobilizing to advance thought leadership and investment in societal\-led solutions.

Incorporating ESG considerations into our internal processes and practices builds resilience from the roots of our business.
